    Does anyone know much about the H & R cup kit? Any pics of E30 with the cup kit?
    Thanks.

      Give your personal opinions on this setup
      I have a Glock .45 ACP model 21 i am about to sell. I want new suspension.

      BTW, mine is a '90 model 325is. How will the wheels fit in the wheel wells. I was told that half the wheel may not be visible.

            I'm sure I've answered this question at least 3 times, you try searching?

            Anyway, it's a good compromise if you have good roads in your area, because it's pretty damn low. It's a bit soft, but it offers excellent ride quality. You can negate this softness and make the car handle great if you put big swaybars on the car.

              How soft is it? Worth upgrading to?

                Where is the cheapest place to buy a cup kit? The best I could find was $542.00 shipped.

                  That is a good price. Take it.

                      Lowest I've ever seen was Turner's for $600 approx.

                          The cup kit is a decently matched suspension setup, but its more a show than go system. Its pretty soft, which allows a lot of comfort, but its definitely not as sporting as some other setups out there.


                          But the lowering effect it has on E30s is dead sexy.

                            Here is the link for the $542.00 cup kit. For this price I think I may have to buy it.

                              how is the rear camber with this setup? would you need camber plates? or would it be ok.
